A previous report by the Toronto-based firm showed that, in the cobalt space, it was Volkswagen Group leading the pack with nearly 3,000 tonnes of the blue metal deployed in the batteries of new VW, Audi, Porsche, and SEAT electric vehicles, as well as those manufactured with joint venture partners in China.

“In total, VW-brand EVs were responsible for 42% of the group’s cobalt deployment in 2020, followed by Audi with 35%, Porsche with 15%, and all others combined with 8%,” the report reads.

The German carmaker was followed by Tesla with more than 2,000 tonnes of cobalt deployed onto roads in the batteries of the new Model 3, Model Y, Model X, and Model S.
